sagra d\u2019la Panissa, Vercelli<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This festival was established in 1991 thanks to some residents and shopkeepers who wanted to promote one of Vercelli\u2019s historic districts, Porta Casale, through one of the most typical dishes of Vercelli\u2019s culinary tradition: panissa. Over the years, the festival has gone from being a one-day celebration to a six-day event during which, in addition to enjoying delicious traditional local dishes, there is no shortage of musical entertainment. Evenings of dance, performances, and demonstrations by dance schools, with a special focus on culture and sport. This is why, over the years, the Panissa Festival has become an unmissable event.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
